Revis, however, decided to take the trade rumors head on, tweeting, “I’m speechless by far but more importantly I feel more upset for the jet nation for having to go through this!!! I guess we’ll see how this plays out.’’

Ryan showed his support for Revis — sort of.

“You guys know how I feel about Darrelle,’’ the coach said. “But as John said, all discussions will be made in the best interest of the football team.’’

Johnson would neither confirm nor deny reports that he was seeking to trade Revis because he feared losing him for nothing as a free agent next winter.

Idzik declared his first order of business is to review the Jets’ entire roster and decide who stays, who goes, and who they need to come in and be part of the solution.

‘‘I look forward to working with Rex Ryan,’’ Idzik said. ‘‘That, to me, was a plus.’’

Reed not retiring

‘‘I’ll be playing next year,’’ Reed said Thursday before Baltimore hit the practice field in preparation for their Feb. 3 Super Bowl matchup against the 49ers.

There was speculation that the 34-year-old Reed might retire after this season.

Earlier this month, in announcing his intention to step down after the playoffs, Lewis spoke of taking a ‘‘last ride.’’

To which Reed said Thursday: ‘‘No, it’s not my last ride. I just bought a bike.’’
